Hi all,
I've been trying to set up uploads and despite all the information and FAQs on the
Mediawiki web
site, I have been unsuccessful. One problem might be because I'm using an old version
of MediaWiki
-- v1.12. This old version is the current version for the latest stable version of
Debian, so this
is what I'm stuck with. (I know I can upgrade just mediawiki, but I'd like to
avoid that as I would
like to try to keep everything at the same Debian distribution.)
Where I've gotten to is that the "Upload" link appears and when I click it
and select an image file
(.png) to upload, I get taken to a page with a very brief message:
Upload file
Upload warning
Protected page
None of these messages are hyper-linked and the last one is in red. To my knowledge, the
file was
never received (I can't seem to find it). Are there error logs to help me find out
what I'm doing
wrong? I believe by default they should go to /var/lib/mediawiki/images and I've
given write
permission to that directory. I guess I'm missing something obvious still; does
anyone have any
suggestions on what I should try?
Thanks in advance!
Ray
